Dave has some controversial thoughts about a national tragedy. HBO's Andre the Giant is Reviewed.
We interrupt your regularly scheduled podcasting to present a special bonus episode on HBO's Andre the Giant documentary. Produced by Bill Simmons and WWE, it's a detailed look at the life of André Roussimoff, one of the biggest (pun intended) wrestlers of all time. Featuring Vince McMahon, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, and a bevy of other bombastic personalities, it's a huge mainstream moment for pro wrestling. But is it any good? Or does being so closely tied to WWE limit how far it can probe into the business's seamy underbelly?
The Ringer's Mallory Rubin and Sean Fennessey break down how Axe is flexing behind the scenes to stay in the game (9:48), this week's MVPs (24:06), and the line of the episode (42:06).
